Importance of Breaking Down the Walls

"Breaking Down The Walls" is a three-day conference sponsored by ASU's School of Historical, Philosophical and Religious Studies in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

In this video, ASU professor Kyle Longley discusses the conference, which is held from March 31 to April 2 at the Wyndham hotel in Downtown Phoenix.

The confab is designed to create relationships and exchange ideas – between academic and U.S. foreign policymakers, but also among policymakers. The keynote speaker for Thursday’s dinner is Air Force Gen. Victor “Gene” Renuart, commander of North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM).
